The “Beard Me” game has just gone viral! Pictures of Pittsburgh children, grandparents and pets are getting ‘shopped with Brett’s beard! Resistance is futile!

The Beard even has its own Facebook Page!

There are WAY too many days between the division championship games and the Super Bowl now that the Pro Bowl is played early! Look what people will resort to in order to be part of the action!

A seventh ring is truly the stuff of legends, and who wouldn’t want to feel part of that?! But kiddies… your parents have a deep dark secret for you. Come close and listen up. We don’t want to jinx it, and we don’t want to spoil your fun, but — well, we’ve been here before — way back in the day — and that one for the thumb took a few decades to arrive. We know this doesn’t happen all the time — even to the Steelers. So get ready for a long dry spell when our ageing stars retire with a fist full of bling. We can hope for the best. And we can add another song to the roster of Steelers parodies: Thanks for the Memories. Still, we hope they keep on comin!
